Tga 50 thermobalance

Manufactured by Shimadzu
Sourced in Japan

The TGA-50 thermobalance is a laboratory instrument designed to measure the change in the mass of a sample as a function of temperature or time. It is primarily used for thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), which is a technique that allows for the characterization of materials based on their thermal stability and composition.

Thermal Characterization of Materials by DSC and TGA

Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) curves were obtained by a DSC-50 cell (Shimadzu, Kyoto, Japan) using aluminum crucibles. Approximately 2 mg of samples were put into these crucibles, and the measurements were made under a dynamic nitrogen atmosphere (50 mL/min) at a heating rate of 10 °C/min in the temperature range 25–600 °C. The DSC cell was calibrated with indium (melting point (m.p.) = 156.6 °C and fusion enthalpy (ΔHfus.) = 28.54 J/g) and zinc (m.p. = 419.6 °C). Thermogravimetric (TG/DTG) curves were obtained with the TGA-50 thermobalance (Shimadzu, Kyoto, Japan) using platinum crucibles that contained roughly 3 mg of a sample. These measurements were made under a dynamic nitrogen atmosphere (50 mL/min) at a heating rate of 10 °C/min in the temperature range 25–900 °C.

C, H and N analyses were carried out with a Thermo Scientific Flash 2000 elemental analyzer. Analytical determination of Na was performed by FAAS on a Perkin Elmer AAnalyst 200 with a 10-cm burner and operated at 589 nm. The hollow cathode lamp (Photron) was operated under the manufacturer's recommendations. The composition of the flame was acetylene (2.5 L/min)-air (10.0 L/min). UV-Vis spectra were recorded in a Shimadzu 1603 spectrophotometer. The FTIR absorption spectra (4000-400 cm -1 ) of the complexes and free ligands were measured as KBr pellets with a Shimadzu IR Prestige-21 instrument. Thermogravimetric measurements (TGA) were done on a Shimadzu TGA 50 thermobalance, with a platinum cell, working under flowing nitrogen (50 mL min -1 ) and at a heating rate of 0.5 °C min -1 (room temperature to 80 °C range) and 1.0 °C min -1 (80-350 °C range). 1 H-NMR spectra were recorded with a Bruker Avance 400 MHz spectrometer in D 2 O at 27 °C. The peak for residual solvent (H 2 O, 4.79 ppm) was used as reference [34] . 31 P-NMR spectra were obtained with the same spectrometer at 161,976 MHz and referred to H 3 PO 4 85% (0.00 ppm).

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
